Here is Soledad's filmography with information on each of her movies, listed in the approximate order of filming. I have tried to unearth as much as I could on these films, but even today some are too obscure so there's little to no information available. Quite a few of her movies are not even available on video. An asterisk indicates that I have seen the movie and therefore more information is included. Be aware that some spoliers are revealed, so if you want the outcome of these movies to be a surprise, then read cautiously! I have noticed, eerily enough, that Soledad dies in a lot of her movies. If anyone has a copy of one of these movies that I haven't seen (movies without an asterisk) or further information on these films, please contact me.

Soledad fans should see it because: They will love to see her dance in this movie. She is quite talented and appears in many musical numbers throughout the film. It's also of interest as it is Soledad's first movie, and naturally she looks much younger than in her more famous films of 1970. Finally, it is very eerie to see her in old-age makeup! However, Soledad later (in 1966) mentioned this movie as one of her least favorite performances, calling herself "very bad" and that she was "missing a lot"... Poor girl, so hard on herself!

The French version is twelve minutes shorter: it begins several scenes into the Spanish version, at the introduction of the leading man. French versions were released, at least on home video, in both color and black and white. My copies are in Spanish and French; if
anyone has a copy with English dubbing or subtitles, please let me
know.

Soledad fans should see it because: This is how
it all started. Though her presence in this film is negligible, it is of interest as it was her first time to work with Jess
Franco, who later made her a star. Jess Franco fans should see it because it's where it all started for him, too (though it
hardly resembles his later work!). Pierre-Alexandre Buisson says, "It is beautifully filmed, with a lot of budget and a very
big crew, and lots of historical details... The story is very foreseeable, but entertaining and sometimes even funny...
[Franco's] unusual camera angles are already there, and his visual style is on the verge of breaking out. Definitively a must
to understand Franco and his work."

Soledad fans should see it because: This was Soledad's largest role in the early part of her career, and she performs very well. It's a great contrast to her later Franco movies, because of the singing but also because she spends half the movie with a huge smile on her face!

Soledad fans should see it because: Soledad has a small part, but this was one of the major movies she appeared in as it has several international stars. It's also how Sidney Pink discovered her, which led to her much larger role in Pyro. Also of interest is that Soledad looks much more buxom and healthy than in her final (and more famous) films.

Soledad fans should see it because: This film is a must for Soledad fans, especially since it is available on DVD. Not only does Soledad have a good-sized part, but of all her movies, this one (along with 100 Rifles) probably had the widest distribution and its two stars were big names in Hollywood. Her true acting talent is apparent as she holds her own with Barry Sullivan. Not only that, but it's simply a very good movie. Fans won't be disappointed! Yet Soledad was, for in a 1966 interview she called her own performance "bad" and "missing a lot"!

Soledad fans should see it because: Soledad's look is very different: she has bright red hair! And it's great to see her act alongside her sister, who is also very beautiful. Plus, we get to see Soledad drive a car. This is another performance, however, that Soledad called out in that 1966 interview, saying she was "bad" and "missing a lot" in this film. Oh well, the fans can disagree!

Soledad fans cannot see it because: Though it has been preserved digitally (the film was very deteriorated and in bad need of preservation), it was only through special efforts that I was able to see this film and under strict rules that I am not allowed to upload any video. However, you can see in the photos that Soledad looks perhaps more beautiful than in any of her other films, and the reason should be obvious: she is falling in love before our very eyes!

Soledad fans should see it because: One of Soledad's largest roles to date, it was an important role for Soledad. She's beautiful and charming. In interviews at the time of filming, Soledad said this and Los gatos negros / A canção da Saudade were her favorite films she'd made so far. Currito de la Cruz would soon top that list.

Soledad fans should see it because: In this movie we see Soledad stretch her drama muscles in a challenging role in which she evolves from a silly girl into a mature single mother. She acts alongside some of Spain's leading men in her sizable role. She also sings a heartfelt song during a religious procession and we later see her flamenco dancing. She is very gorgeous and sophisticated-looking in this film. Furthermore, Soledad was extremely proud of this film; it was her favorite throughout her career. Bullfighting, however, is a deplorable sport and this movie is very graphic.

Soledad fans should see it because: It's another must for Soledad fans as she has a large role and this was also a movie distributed internationally. The movie is worth watching just for her dance! The biggest bonus is getting to see her act alongside a young Ingrid Pitt, another cult legend. This is a pretty cheesy movie, but the suspense is actually good in places and Soledad looks great and handles the material well.

Soledad fans should see it because: Another must for Soledad fans; her part is small but we see her in a topless argument with Burt Reynolds...definitely the most famous actor Soledad worked with and probably one of the most generally famous movies she was in, as well as one of the most widely-distributed.

After reviving her career with 100 Rifles, Soledad appeared on some TV shows in Spain in the spring of 1969: Estudio 1 (an episode called "Las ratas", February), and La última moda (an hour-long musical comedy, April). "Las ratas" was a tragic comedy directed by Juan Guerrero Zamora and written by Gerhardt Hauptmann in 1911. I found a summary in a Spanish review: Hauptmann once took elocution lessons from a former director of the Royal Theatre of Strasbourg, who, upon leaving office, had taken lot of costumes, furniture and other objects to save the theater, waiting for better luck in an old barracks where, for a living, he gave lessons. This character is one of the protagonists of the story, Hassenrevter. Alongside the comedy is developed, at the same time, the tragedy of a woman who, disappointed in her desire for maternity, steals the child of a single mother and tries to make her husband understand that he is hers. When the deception is discovered, Mrs. John kills herself. Soledad plays a secondary role, daughter of Hessenrevter. She said in an interview: "I play Walburga, a small girl of sixteen, very naïve, in love with a Protestant pastor who wants to be an actor. She is a very beautiful character, perhaps the most gentle and normal in the drama." It was Soledad's debut on Spanish television, and she told a journalist "to begin by the hand of a director as prestigious as Juan Guerrero Zamora and in a program as important as Estudio 1, I am very much satisfied." La última moda was, according to Soledad, "a production similar to El irreal Madrid, made by the same director. It is a major production, with very little dialogue and staged with songs and dances in modern program." According to IMDB, it won the Bronze Rose award for Spain, at the 1969 Rose d'Or Festival for Television Programming, in Switzerland.

Soledad fans should see it because: This was Soledad's first starring role in a Franco movie and one of her finest performances ever - both mystifying and complex as she and her stepfather commit their crimes. Is she an innocent girl or a sadistic killer? As it so happens, she is both. All Soledad fans, as well as Franco fans and Marquis de Sade fans, should see this movie.

Soledad fans should see it because: This is THE Soledad Miranda movie. This is the film she's most famous for today and which cemented her status as a cult star. It's her living legacy. Not only that, but it's a great story, one of Jess Franco's true masterpieces, and has the grooviest soundtrack in the world... not to mention Soledad's stripteases and Franco's appearance in a twisted subplot.

Soledad fans should see it because: Her role is not as big as in the previous several films, but this is a must-see for Soledad fans, not only because it was her last film, but also because she has a great character... mysterious yet silly at times. It's a nice change to see her in a light-hearted role.

Click here for a synopsis and pictures from Juliette and here to find it on IMDB. Jess Franco has been rumored to still have the unfinished footage to use for a Soledad tribute one day, but it could be lying in storage in a film laboratory, or it might even have been lost or destroyed. If you know more about this film, please let me know.

According to IMDB, Soledad appeared alongside Javier Fleta in a 1965 TV movie called La vida de Cole Porter. Out of my collection of over 300 articles about Soledad, only two mention this project. One from 1965 said that she was going to do the film. However, when asked in an 1969 interview what was the biggest trouble of her career, Soledad said, "Task, I would say. After trying twenty days 'The Life of Cole Porter,' I go one good day to record and immediately I found I no longer could." Furthermore, a reputable magazine devoted to Spanish television stated in February 1969 that Las ratas was Soledad's debut on TVE. This leads me to believe Soledad was not in the project, or perhaps the project was canceled entirely.

In a Spanish magazine interview, Soledad mentioned she would be starring in an operetta on television on November 21, 1964. The title was not mentioned, and nothing else is known about the project.

A Spanish magazine article a few months before Soledad's death mentioned that she appeared in two telenovelas for Pan American Television. This may have happened in late 1969 or early 1970. However, the titles of the soap operas and any details about them are not known.

Many filmographies say that Soledad appeared uncredited in the 1968 western White Comanche (Comanche blanco), starring William Shatner. It was filmed in Spain and did feature many Spanish actors. IMDB says Diana Lorys also appeared uncredited. I have watched this film and cannot spot Soledad in it. The only person who could remotely resemble Soledad is a woman walking in a procession: see here and here. It was filmed during the period when Soledad was retired from cinema and even if she had been performing still, she had risen way beyond being an uncredited background extra! It was released in December 1968; it was only in December that Soledad announced her return to cinema, having been offered a role in 100 Rifles. Have you seen this movie? Do you think Soledad is in it? Let me know! Similarly, some filmographies say Soledad also appeared uncredited in the 1970 western Cannon for Cordoba, which is also unlikely as IMDB doesn't even list her in the cast.

Some filmographies indicate that Soledad had an uncredited role in Jess Franco's 1962 musical comedy Vampiresas 1930, although IMDB does not list her in the cast. However, according to Franco's associate Kevin Collins, she was not in that film; he says the confusion may have arisen because that film is often aligned with La reina del Tabarín in filmographies, so people assume since Soledad was in one, she was in both. However, that is not the case.

It has been said that after the completion of Juliette, Soledad was supposed to be in Jess Franco's movie X312 - Flight to Hell, but died before the movie was filmed. This was confirmed by her would-be costar in the film, Thomas Hunter; Gila von Weitershausen took over the part. It was filmed in Brazil, and Soledad was about to travel to Latin America for theatrical engagements when she died. She may very well have been headed on to South America to make this film after that. However, Jess Franco himself said: "We - Brauner and me - decided to make this film after Soledad's death." Franco's recollections are not always accurate, but he assured me that Soledad was never supposed to be in this film.

In what was apparently her last interview, Soledad told a Spanish reporter about her upcoming films for Franco and Brauner: "One of them on the life of one of the women who were involved with Charles Manson, that murdered [Sharon Tate] driven by the will of Manson... And another on Voodoo." The details of these planned projects may never be known. When I mentioned these to Franco, he said there was no truth to it. He did, however, reveal that one of the planned films was an adaptation of a Pushkin book. See my interview with Franco for more details.
